MacStumbler
Friday, September 26th, 2003

MacStumbler is a program that looks for wireless access points, and gives you a lot of info about them. You can also use it in combination with a GPS device, to take the coordinates of wireless access points and map them out. This will go great with a 12” Powerbook. I’ll be able to easily […]

Evil Advertisements
Friday, September 26th, 2003

This is some of the most evil advertising I’ve seen in a while. I went to Gamespot to check up on all things gaming, and it brought up this ad. I’m a Gamespot Complete member, which means I shouldn’t see any ads at all, but sometimes the cookie expires and I have to log back […]

I just got sued by the RIAA…
Friday, September 26th, 2003

I just bought a couple of Mac shirts from MacShirt last night. I got the “Mac Geek” one, and the “It’s a Mac thing. (You wouldn’t understand)” one. There is another hilarious one on there that says “I just got sued by the RIAA, and all I have left is this lousy t-shirt”. Ahahahahaha. That’s […]

Even more CSS news
Friday, September 26th, 2003

The CSS news is coming fast and furious these days…

Layout-O-Matic is a tool for making layout templates in CSS. You just enter the type of layout (2 column, 3 column, fluid, etc), the size, some padding measurements, and press submit and the site generates all the necessary code for you. Pretty great!

StyleMaster 3 is out […]

GameBoy Advance Wireless Adapter
Friday, September 26th, 2003

Wired reports that Motorola is making a wireless adapter for the GameBoy Advance that will allow people to play multiplayer games wirelessly, within a 30 foot range of each other. Basically it’ll be like using one of the GameBoy Advance link cables, but without the cable I imagine. The upcoming Nokia N-Gage and Sony PSP […]

Macromedia Central
Thursday, September 25th, 2003

Macromedia Central is a new software/service/Flash application from Macromedia that is currently in Public Beta. It’s basically like Sherlock or Watson on the Mac. You use one centralized application and one standard interface to access a wide range of information from many different web sites. Central only has two sections right now, the Weather and […]

Synapse Media Player
Thursday, September 25th, 2003

Minse told me about this MP3 player software called Synapse. It uses the Windows Media Player codecs, but puts on a new, smarter front end. It has smart playlists sort of like iTunes, and will sort by artist automatically. It also automatically recognizes new songs when you rip them or download them, and they are […]

OneWord: Favorite
Thursday, September 25th, 2003

Here is a list of some of my favorite things:

Game: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Drink: Was Mountain Dew, but since it is made out of poison, I try to just drink juice. I like apple juice.
Food: I like pigs in a blanket a lot. With Big Franks of course, not real hot dogs. […]

Microsoft enters Anti-Virus business. Hahaha
Thursday, September 25th, 2003

Microsoft bought some Romanian anti-virus company and plan on releasing their own anti-virus program and bundling it with the next version of Windows. That is just hilarious and terrible on so many levels. Now they’ll be making money from their own mistakes and errors. Plus it’s just another monthly “service” for them to force the […]
